You dont need to take of the exhaust, go in there with an air ratchet or a impact with an extention.

^ Those are the mounts i got.
Exactly the same ones that I bought. I installed the 2 and later put the stock trans. mounts back in. I gave one of the poly mounts to a friend the other I still have lying around here doing nothing.

Give the mounts at least 1000 miles before you make your call on them. Maybe you do have this many miles, but each person has diffent levels on how "the vibs are"
...and the vibes do diminish quite a bit once u get some miles on them .

The trans mounts are the mounts that actually help the most . If anything , if u cant take it , go back to a stock motor mount and keep the trans mounts .

Back on Topic

All my screws and bolts went loose from the vibes and that's what I hated the most about the solid trans. mounts.

Hopefully it will reduce the vibrations because theres only 1 installed now. The car sounds different now also when i go up to like 4 grand and let off the gas it revs down slower then it shifts into the other gear like after 2 seconds.
